Mellanox Announces Availability of Turnkey NFS-RDMA SDK for InfiniBand that Delivers 10X Throughput Improvement
During Linux World, Mellanox announced the general availability of the NFS-RDMA SDK (Network File System over Remote Direct Memory Access Software Development Kit) for its InfiniBand adapter products. The SDK supports the OpenFabrics Enterprise Distribution (OFED) version 1.2 software stack and delivers 1.3GB/s (gigabytes per second) of read throughput and 600MB/s (megabytes per second) of write throughput over a single InfiniBand link – a ten fold improvement to existing NFS over Gigabit Ethernet solutions available in the market.
“To deliver end user satisfaction with applications that demand multi-terabytes of files-based storage capacity, cost and power savings are as important as ability to scale in a flexible way,” said Ekechi Nwokah, Storage Architect at Alexa Internet, an Amazon.com subsidiary. “Our data mining applications using NFS-RDMA and Mellanox-based InfiniBand solutions are enabling us to deliver on that promise with maximum ROI.”
